The Judges
aka SteveBurtonsHoe aka BasherSisters (part of that team too)
Unlike the chicks below me I am a simple one. Do your best and I will look at the quality of your work. I will look at all Fandoms and all Shows for the Basic Video Making Skills. I will mention that my favorite thing to video make to is anything General Hospital. Liason and SpinMax but pretty much anything Jason Morgan related or Maxie Jones related better be in the Pro sorts. (joking) I watch House, OTH, CSI, and love Comedy movies and a good horror flick. If you can make me cry or be scared you are sure to get my Judge's choice! That is all!
Well since she did it I will AKA Vfrye74 AKA Will be the long winded one.LOL aka the other half of BasherSisters. Okay here I go I will do what Shay did and go down the list!
Effects: I love effects and I love to see them be used but not over used or the same effect in all your video's that gets boring!
Song Choice: Make sure it fits your Fandom or what you are trying to get through in the video. If you use tears in heaven for someone that is alive and has never died what is the point in the song! See my point okay off to the next.
Fandoms: General Hospital is my favorite show ever! You guys knew that didn't you? Okay Buffy,Charmed,Angel freaking awesome shows loved them to death and love the video's people make for them. Bones,House, Prison Break, lets just say all Fox shows and CW and WB................ Movies: Anything I love horror the more gore the better. My favorite movie is Sweet Home Alabama so I am not all about the gore!
I will not list my dislikes cause I can watch any video and if you can grab my attention with your video and make me like you have won me over. I don't care what couple what show I love video's period!
My Favorite thing about any video is a AR cause that comes from in your head and It means you thought it up all on your own (goody) I love to see what other people like and can come up with when they decided to go for it!
Okay I am done now but like always I reserve the right to add more at another time!
PS...I love Family Guy Shay!

I. Effects
I love effects. I feel they can take a video to a whole new level. A lot of people would advise you to stay away from effects, especially if you are a beginner, but I really think they are necessary, if only for transitional purposes. I would advise you to choose your effects wisely, though, because one untimely effect can make the difference the video that wins and the video that doesn’t, especially in the Pro level competitions seeing as the Pros should know what they are doing.
II. Song Choice
I am not picky. I will listen to anything be it rap or techno, slow or fast, happy or sad. Just make sure it fits your video!That said, I do have my preferences. While this may give some contenders the advantage of not grumbling about having to watch their videos, it in no way guaranties them my vote.
